I applied online. I interviewed at Primark (Leeds, England)
Interview
Standard interview asked me scenario questions and which tasks would I prioritise etc. After the interview I was told that they would contact me via email within a couple of weeks, a couple of weeks (roughly four weeks) I had received an email of things to do before starting as well as my hours and my induction start time and date.
Great! Would love to interview here for any job at any time. Boss is good and balance too. Multiple rounds but all work just fine and will go back. Maybe in future again.
Individual phone interview asking basic questions about sales experience in fast-paced environments and expectations. As I already worked for another store in a different location I didn't have to attend to a second interview. Once I got it, there was a induction day talking about the business, its mission and values.
Usually have a group interview, and then have an individual one with two managers. They will ask you situational questions, and then questions about yourself. Received a call back the next day.
